Nå kan man få spansk øl på tank i Norge





Brewery International AS informerer at de etter flere forsinkelser, endelig har fått levert sin nye tankøl bil, samt kjølte tankøl containere fra San Miguel.
 
Ølet blir tappet ferskt på tank ved San Miguels bryggeri i Lerida, for deretter å bli shippet ut fra havnebyen Bilbao. Ti dager senere er ølet i Norge og vi er klare til å kjøre det ut til våre tankøl kunder. Ferskere øl er det vanskelig å få tak i. Vi har testet igjennom alt med teknikere og bryggerimesteren fra San Miguel, som har godkjent at det ikke er noe kvalitets-forringelse ved denne form for håndtering.  Ølet står uavbrutt på kjøl ned på 2 grader celsius.




Brewery International takker samtidig alle sine tankøl kunder som har gjort det mulig for dem å starte opp med dette prosjektet, og vi håper det kommer flere til når man ser hvor bra kvalitet San Miguel inneholder og hva det gjør med salget til deres gjester.





Vi hos Viladomat Hospitality Consultants synes dette er spennende nyheter og venter spent på kundenes reaksjon.

BALSAMIC VINEGAR - MASSIMO BOTTURA

BALSAMIC VINEGAR


In 2011 Massimo Bottura received his third Michelin star. He also won the Grand Prize at the San Sebastian Chef's Summit. His Osteria Francescana restaurant in Modena has been in the top 5 of The World’s 50 Best Restaurant Awards since 2010.
Who better than a chef from Modena to reveal the great possibilities of using balsamic vinegar. And if this chef happens to be one of the most creative on the scene today, the subject becomes even more intriguing. Throughout the pages of this book, Massimo Bottura, chef/owner of the Osteria Francescana, shows how this ages-old ingredient is becoming ever more modern. It is commonly used in its liquid form but can also be used as a gelatine; it goes well both with sweet and salty food; in fact, it brings out the best of the other ingredients in all recipes where it is used. In 'Balsamic Vinegar', Massimo Bottura gives us some very new and exciting ideas for a very traditional product.

11 Kinds of Wings Around the World


I love the Buffalo wings! What is your favourite?



People across the planet love to get their soon-to-be-sticky fingers on chicken wings


From the usual spicy suspects, such as Buffalo wings, to exotic takes, such as the sweet-and-savory, soy-and-sugar-based ones you find in street stalls in Malaysia, we've discovered some of the best ways to prepare chicken wings around the world.

There’s something inherently special about eating foods that don’t call for the interference of utensils. I mean, sure, forks, knives, and spoons are pretty amazing tools in the history of human inventiveness, but devouring a delicious meal with the use of only your hands (and, subsequently, a dispenser’s-worth of napkins) is, in some strange way, uniquely liberating. Some might say it even makes the dish in question taste better.


That’s why people across the planet love to get their soon-to-be-sticky fingers on chicken wings (and sometimes even duck wings). These delectable morsels epitomize the primal way of consumption, where you simply hold on by the bottom of the exposed bone and bring each sauce-slathered drumette or wingette, aka “flat,” directly into your anticipating taste-bud lair. Plus, you’d surely get some shocked, cross-eyed glances from your hungry companions if you started slicing off meat from your wings, on a plate, mimicking the daintiest of 18th-century etiquette school students.



The beauty of these heavenly bites of protein is that there are different interpretations of cooking them in nearly every corner of the globe. We’ve discovered some of the best ways people prepare poultry wings on their home turf, from the usual spicy suspects, such as Buffalo wings, to exotic takes, such as the sweet-and-savory, soy-and-sugar-based ones you find in street stalls in Malaysia. Some may surprise you; others will inspire you. And, when it comes to making them yourself at home, you don’t have to wing it. Instead, click on any of the recipe links in each description, and use the easy-to-follow instructions to create your own versions of some of the best appetizers ever — and just in time for Sunday’s big game. Take a look at the meaty contenders.
